An out-of-this-world book about space jobs for anyone from age 6+
Dr Sheila Kanani is a space cadet, with her head high up in the
clouds even when her feet are firmly on planet Earth. Sheila became
interested in space and astronomy at the age of 13, and her passion
sky-rocketed from there. She has a PhD in planetary science and her
favourite planet is Saturn. Her favourite 'work' interests are
teaching GCSE Astronomy and giving public talks to audiences of all
ages and sizes, while representing her place of work, the Royal
Astronomical Society, which she adores.
Outside of astronomy, Sheila loves to play hockey and the
saxophone, enjoys listening to records and dancing like no one is
watching with her husband and young son, and curling up on the sofa
with an excellent book and her six-fingered cat. Sheila's love of
writing began when she was nine and she started a daily journal,
which she has kept (mostly) up to date ever since!
